Turkey has been battling wildfires that erupted in the southern and southwestern coastal resort towns and have lasted seven days, officials announced Monday. Eight neighborhoods were completely deserted while five others partially evacuated as blazes hit the residential areas. The European Union announced that the bloc would send three firefighting planes from Croatia and Spain after Turkey activated the EU Civil Protection Mechanism on Sunday. The fires have claimed eight lives so far in Turkey.

Israel Destroyed 92% of Gaza Houses: UNRWA

On May 19, 2025

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) reported that 92% of homes in Gaza have been damaged or destroyed since Israel launched its military operations on October 7, 2023.

UNRWA described the situation as “unimaginable destruction,” stating that many Palestinians have been repeatedly displaced, with a severe shortage of shelters.

Israel, which has blocked humanitarian aid from entering Gaza since March 2, has now launched a new large-scale ground offensive in the north and south of the enclave.
